Objective To study the expansion and purification of human retinal progenitors cultured in vitro.(Methods Human) embryonic retinal progenitor cells(RPCs) were cultured.The characteristics of neural stem cell were observed.The expression of Nestin was examined flow cytometry(FCM) for the comparsion between the primary and secondary passages.The differentiation of RPCs had been observed after that they had been cultured in different conditions.Results Human RPCs had proliferated and formed cell clusters with a shape of neurosphere.After digestion,the scattered progenitors formed secondary neurosphere-like cell clusters.The cells in those clusters expressed Nestin and were negative for the mature retinal cell proteins.After spontaneous differentiation,the retinal progenitors expressed special proteins of mature retinal cells,including neuron specific enolase(NSE),glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP),protein kinase C(PKC) and Syntaxin-1.The expression of Nestin in the secondary culture passage was(39.3?18.9)%,which was significantly higher than that of the primary passage [(28.7?17.7)%](P

The paper discusses the importance of bioethics,which is a love of life.Bioethics is the ethics of love.Three parts are included in the paper: love is foundation of bioethics;love is core of existence of bioethics;love impels bioethics to further develop.Love instructs the choice of objective bioethics in the toleration circumstance.Furthermore,love can impel the construction of bioethics in the progress of medical beneficence development.

Objective To explore the association between epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) thickness and left ventricular remodeling,left ventricular dysfunction in dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM).Methods One hundred and sixteen patients with DCM (DCM group) and 76 healthy subjects (control group) were examined by ultrasoundcardiogram.Left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVESD),left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD),left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESV),left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV),left ventricular end-systolic volume index (LVESVI),left ventficular end-diastolic volume index (LVEDVI),left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and EAT thickness were measured or calculated,and the relationship was evaluated.Results EAT thickness in DCM group was significantly lower than that in control group [(4.7 ± 1.2) mm vs.(7.6 ± 2.1) mm],and there was statistical difference (P ＜ 0.05).The linear correlation analysis results showed there was positive correlation between EAT thickness and LVESD,LVEDD,LVESV,LVEDV,LVEDVI,LVESVI (r =0.236,0.220,0.245,0.256,0.282,0.279,P ＜ 0.05),and there was no relationship between EAT thickness and LVEF (r =0.134,P ＞0.05).Conclusions In patients with DCM,there is a correlation between EAT thickness and ventricular remodeling.There is no correlation between EAT thickness and left ventricular dysfunction.

Objective To study the protective effect of Qidan Tongmai Tablet (QDTMT) on the (injury) induced by acute myocardial ischemia. Methods Acute myocardial ischemia was induced by sc isoproterenol (Iso, 5 mg/kg) into SD rats pretreated with ig QDTMT (2 g/kg) for two weeks. Activities of Ca~(2+)-(ATPase) in myocardial mitochondria and content of Ca~(2+) in myocardium and myocardial mitochondria were determined by colorimetric method. The changes of myocardial ultrastructure were investigated by means of transmission electron microscope. Results Compared with the controls, activities of Ca~(2+)-(ATPase) in mitochondrion were strengthened in QDTMT group and the content of Ca~(2+) was decreased ((P

Radiotherapy is an important treatment for malignant tumors, but it will have a negative impact on the reproductive function of young female patients.In recent years, the measures to protect female fertility are increasing, including clinical mature technologies such as embryo cryopreservation and mature oocyte cryopreservation; highly experimental technologies such as immature oocyte in vitro fertilization and ovarian tissue cryopreservation and transplantation.In addition, the application of stem cells and the proposal of artificial ovary also show great prospects in the protection of female fertility.This paper reviews the research progress of female fertility protection strategies in radiotherapy.

Purpose To study the morphological features, immunohistochemical phenotype, diagnosis and differential diagnosis of hep-atoblastoma in children. Methods The pathologic data of 58 child patients with hepatoblastoma were enrolled in this study, and histo-logical classification with distinct clinical associations were used. Prognostic data were also collected. Results Pure epithelial type was 33 cases, pure fetal type 18 cases, including 8 cases of low mitotic activity type, 9 cases of high mitotic activity, and 1 case of fo-cal pleomorphic type. 11 cases were embryonal type, 3 small undifferentiated type and 1 transitional liver cell tumor. All the 25 cases of mixed epithelial and mesenchymal type were without teratoid features, including fetal epithelial and mesenchymal type (6 cases), embryonal epithelial and mesenchymal type (17 cases), transitional liver cell tumor and mesenchymal type (2 cases). Follow-up data were available in 14 cases, in which 12 cases were sensitive to chemotherapy. Conclusions Pathologic type of hepatoblastoma rely mainly on the histology, which has a certain clinical prognostic significance. The stage of the tumor and the histopathologic type are two key prognostic factors in determining the survival of children with hepatoblastoma.

Objective:To review methodology of medicine price index methodology and provide methodological implications for empirical researches. Methods:Based on the recent original home and abroad researches, the price index formulas, the medicine product definition, price and quantity units were introduced in this paper together with their merit/demerit and different selections’ measurement bias. Results: The measurement results were significantly different along with selections of the different weighted price index formulas. The medicine product definition and the price/quantity units in the formulas were different as well. By taking into account the new products entry and the ol-der ones exit updating issue, and by considering the products quality changes issue can also have an important empir-ical implication for the price measurement. Conclusions:The medicine price index methods need to be deeply devel-oped and the researchers should devote to further research and perform accurate measurement. In the empirical analy-sis, researchers can use different methods to measure the medicine price index in order to more accurately reflect the medicine price level change.

Objective:To study the insulin resistance and leptin resistance in women with polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS).Methods:Body mass index(BMI),serum leptin,fasting blood glucose(FBG),fasting insulin(FINS),serum triglyceride,total cholesterol,high-density lipoprotein,low-density lipoprotein and insulin resistance index(HOMA-IR) were assessed in 30 normal women,30 simple obesity women and 41 PCOS women.Results:①The PCOS patients showed higher levels of BMI,serum leptin,FINS,HOMA-IR and low-density lipoprotein,and lower levels of high-density lipoprotein than that in normal control.Compared to simple obesity women,there only showed higher FINS level and lower BMI in PCOS women.②Serum leptin levels in PCOS patients were concerned with BMI、FINS、HOMA-IR and serum triglyceride levels.③There were no significant difference of the FINS and HOMA-IR between normal women and non obese PCOS women,but the obese PCOS women showed higher levels of FINS and HOMA-IR than that in simple obesity women;the serum leptin levels showed no significant difference between normal women and non-obese PCOS women,simple obesity women and obese PCOS women. Conclusion:PCOS patients may have insulin resistance and leptin resistance;There may have regulative effect between leptin resistance and insulin resistance in PCOS patients;There are direct relationship between insulin resistance and PCOS;The rise of serum leptin level in PCOS women may be the assident manifestation of obesity.

Objective To establish mice modle of allergic rhinitis(AR) and to study the role of Staphylococcal enterotoxin B(SEB) and ovalbumin(OVA) in the modle.Methods Forty Balb/c mice were evenly randomized into OVA group,SEB group,OVA+SEB group and normal sodium group and AR modle was established.The symptom scores,total serum IgE concentration,IL-4 concentration were analyzed by factorial design.Meanwhile,the morphology change of nasal mucosa was observed.Results The symptom scores in OVA group,SEB group,OVA+SEB group and normal sodium group were 6.80?1.03,0.90?0.99,0.70?0.82,0.60?0.70 respectirely.The interaction of OVA and SEB had statistical significance(P
